Good golly. I would ask where you found that much open road to take a ride like that, but you probably know better than to answer that!

Petty cool.

From my "eye balling" and calculations (and if you have stock gearing), looks to be right above 190 mph. A couple of times you are hitting spots where you are getting tire slippage (I think) and the RPMs indicating 194 mph.

I was bouncing off the rev limiter, 3 times, in 6th gear, stock gearing, stock tires, 190.15 mph GPS !

Amazing how the coolant temp held a relatively cool 78 degrees celsius (174 fahrenheit) even while maintaining those rpm!

How worn is your back tire? Rev limiter with stock gearing and stock height rear tire should be 194. However with rear tire slippage, common in high speed runs, loosing 3-4 mph is reasonable.

Awesome. Love how you had to make turns at that speed, how was that anyway? I will bet the traffic you passed freaked out when you whizzed by at 299. How long was it before your heartbeat came below 130??
